Ever watched your grandma chase a rat around the house and think I should write a tv episode about this? No? Me either.
Everyone out here complaining about the ending. I’m just really upset my dude died his hair that hideous red color
Am I the only one who yelled out "good" when that damn kid was the one who got shot? He redefined arrogant stupidity in every way.
Bro I swear, I know this is probably all rigged. But on the off-chance it’s not… Phil is a fucking God
I don't like the winner... and the red green gray shape challenge could and probably was so easily rigged based on who production wanted in the final.
I'm happy that Elsa is continuing to be the narrator of this show.
I've read reviews of the show about people giving it 1 star because of Harrison Ford and his political thoughts. Fine if you don't like him but it's stupid to rate shows based on his political views and not his acting. In this so far, I have liked him. And Helen Miren is always fantastic.
This prequel has potential, obviously. But I needed a bit more on a first episode. There are some brief background tid bits but I needed more. Maybe I'm too dumb but I need more direct info. The kid getting married calls Harrison Ford uncle but it's great uncle which confused me. Why is Spencer in Africa? What's up with the Catholic school? Why is this girl that's about to get married both the daughter of a rancher and then says she doesn't know the life but she will learn it? We see John and his wife with no real introduction at all.
It just seemed a bit sloppy but knowing Taylor Sheridan there is a reason for that and it'll all get tied together.
I expected a lot more deaths, and then my heroine of all people gets it :(
As often in the last episodes, not everything was completely comprehensible and sometimes sloppily staged.
What was not convincing at all in this episode: the crowd scenes. Surely the whole Commonwealth consists of more than 20 or 30 people?
So damn boring, an hour of talking about feelings again.
wtf happened here? did I miss a season or two?
Grown man crying like a baby again.
Up to this episode the entire production has been stellar!
But let’s talk about the casting of those VIPS...
Damn, it made me cringe every time they spoke. Poor writing, dialogue and awful acting (by the English speaking VIPS) really let the show down. Asian cinema always seems to taint their own brilliant actors by casting some D-grade foreign extras based in country. If it’s some legal issue with hiring actors outside their region, then they should sort all that out beforehand. Did Netflix even consult with the Korean team on these matters? It literally feels like they found some caucasian men on the street and offered them roles.
FFS Alpha is dead, no one needs to see her in Carol's hallucinations. She better not be in it next week.
This show has the best hair. And the worst hair. But still the best hair.
Slow and boring episode. The love story is dragging on way too long.
Some good moments with Spencer and Alex this episode. Nice to see Harrison Ford will likely start to become more of a presence again as well. There are a lot of storylines happening at once and it's definitely become a bit of a slow-burn, but overall it's still enjoyable enough.
Seems I’m in the minority but this was probably my favourite episode so far.
Teonna’s storyline along with Spencer & Alex’s are still the most interesting aspects of the show for me, but this feels like the first episode where Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren have actually been able to work together, and provide us with their expertise. Their conversation outside the house was great mainly because it felt real, and you get the sense that both are enjoying their roles more and more as the show goes on.
I’m enjoying this series, although admittedly I haven’t loved it, but is quite extraordinary to look at – this goes for every episode. Much like Yellowstone and 1883, it feels like a movie at times
I've come to think that the meaty part of the craft of acting is more often found in its too-easily overlooked nuances than in its thundering confrontations with the abyss, that agonizing reality that surrounds every one of us and exacts the toll for our journey that we fight so hard not to pay. And yet...heh, that's right, of course that's where I'm going with this. :smirk:
*clears throat*
And yet if by chance I am right, our best guide to learning to observe those nuances of actors, the ones that have the power to transport us far away from our bodies to laugh and weep with those who lived and died all in someone else's mind...well that guide is the moments furthest removed from them. Moments that demand your heartbeat to quicken and stomach to grow taut, like a needle and thread they pierce us and leave scars and in their wake is left the thread of life itself, symbolizing the things we will always instantly recognize in each other. No one who has ever truly lived has avoided them...the moments in life where the record skips and for the briefest moment the needle takes flight and the whole world is in limbo, wondering if the song will continue, begin looping the last few, tiresome moments over and over, or be judged so broken as to never play again.
I should warn you though, and I want so badly to warn Spencer, too, because the price of living on the edge is indeed very high and the lucky ones pay it quickly while the taste of their fear is fresh in their mouth. They'll never know that it was merely a stalking horse for the thing they truly needed to fear: that day when joy or grief comes to visit them again but inside they can't feel it, not really, not like they used to. It's a peculiar thought, that the familiar euphemism of being a "glutton for punishment" might not only be possible for things like fear and agony, and then as it always does, rob the indulgent of the thing they once craved most. The languages I know all seem to lack a satisfactory way to describe it. To be still alive and breathing but dead inside, the young say that's poetry, then after a few more years they says it's just melodrama, except for the few who bear its curse, that is.
When Helen Mirren is standing in that kitchen and playing the part of a woman who's facing the evidence of all the world's cruelty painted across every surface of her home in the rich maroons and crimsons of the blood of her one true love, we didn't have to ask where she was going when she turned and marched out to the middle of the pasture. I had no idea though that it wouldn't be nearly far enough and that the wail that she could no longer suppress would possess a ferocity appropriate for someone three times her size; I remain now as I was then...taken aback, and filled with admiration for a true master of their craft. Brava, fair dame...brava.
Wow! That was a beauty of an episode! The flow and timing was simply perfect given the complexities in the storylines.
Really enjoying this, looking forward to the finale. Screw Ashley though, she wasn't a teamplayer on the bridge and that's fine but then own it instead of pretending Mai is wrong.
The majority of the runtime is tedious and a lot boring to watch. The whining and screaming is ridiculously annoying watch. A simple twist can't change the fact that most of its runtime was boring.
Man, this fucked with my brain. Especially since we have chatbots and such now that are at roughly the same level of realism.
there's so many symbolism that I can't even start where.. but it's pretty much how the society works even nowadays. the need for fame over dignity, body shaming, white washing, looking up at people who aren't even worth it at all, people who thinks they are better than you but in reality, they aren't..living lives in a box, there's just so much to take in in this episode.
The scene after the credits setting up the next season just ruins everything.
Fuck Janice. Out of all the characters, she was the only psychopath.
How the fuck does Wyatt go from Charlotte to Darlene?!?!?!?!?! come on man!
No denying that the acting is good, and the dialogue is also pretty decent - June and Serena had some good conversations in this episode. But none of that changes the fact that the writing in this show has deteriorated to bad fanfiction level. The idea that these two characters are even out here in this situation in the first place is absurd. A lot of the scenes this season could have been really great... had they been earned. But the big problem I have with this season, and also a lot of the last one, is that the writers are essentially forcing characters into interesting situations very quickly, without actually taking the time to make those situations come about in a natural and nuanced manner. It's like when the final two seasons of Game of Thrones suddenly started having characters teleporting all over Westeros every episode, when prior to those seasons, it would take a character multiple episodes of traveling to get to those places in the first place. You can't just throw characters into big moments and expect us to care, or think it's good - these things must be built at a steady pace that makes sense.
So 3 episodes in the crime cases are actually not too bad. There are a lot of plot holes and silly actions but overall it’s a decent show ... if there wasn’t the red line plot of Alice. This is simply ignoring all reality. It makes a decent crime show close to obsolete. The whole plot-line is completely pointless, nothing like that would make sense or be possible in reality. Too bad for the show imho
Damn. After last week I was really hoping they would keep up the pace, but this episode is just straight up boring and a waste of time. The only highlight is the introduction of the Variant, but even that scene felt lazy and uninspired.
The armored Stormtroopers are incredibly useless. The two at the beginning of the episode getting flanked by walkers while clearing them with machine guns. And at the end the Delta team managed to flip the vehicle driving in a completely flat field and one of them gets killed almost immediately? I'm questioning how have they managed to last this long xD
1) I didn’t care for the new Rhaneara. She has a totally different accent from the young actress.
2) I agree with the preceding comments: why did some actors get to continue their roles but the women were substituted?
3) I like the direction they’ve taken for Daemon.
4) I thought the young couple (Targaryen and Valaryon) had agreed to do their marital duties as well as have affairs. Why isn’t there at least one child of both bloods?
One of the best show I ever seen.
